I agreed that this bug report was marked as a desired feature instead of a bug report so developers could have more time to dedicate to fixing other (more critical) bugs and take the time to fix this. But 8 years is too long. I'm very impressed by such delay. Here's the most obvious reason why this is a bug: a spreadsheet contains information, but its headers and footers contain METAINFORMATION (i.e. information about the spreadsheet's information). E.g. the page numbers placed in the headers or footers pretty much inform us how many pages (i.e. how much space) the spreadsheet's information takes up. Another clear reason why resizing a spreadsheet shouldn't resize its headers and footers along is because international standardization organizations like ISO specify fixed font types and sizes for headers and footers in different document types (e.g. dissertations and other technical and academic documents). Therefore, by default LibreOffice should NOT resize headers and footers: the actual "desired feature" or "enhancement" is precisely providing the end-user the ability to change such default behavior, in order to cause LibreOffice to resize headers' and footers' font sizes along with their corresponding pages. But for some weird reason LibreOffice by default behaves in such non-standard, undesired way.</pre> </div> <hr> You are receiving this mail because: <ul> <li>You are the assignee for the bug.</li> </ul> </body> </html>
